Our award winning hands-on Civil War educational program returns. We invite Public Schools, Private Schools, and Homeschoolers to our campus to for a day full of learning through meaningful engagement with re-enactors, presenters, and interpreters.

Meet historical figures like Mary Todd Lincoln and Abraham Lincoln, Frederick Douglass, General Grant, and more.

Practice drilling as both the Confederate and Union troops would have done. Learn the how to play the battle march and see or hear the Battery G Artillery cannon fire.

Pre-registration is required. For more information please contact Museum Educator, Kendall Clair, at educator@midwayvillage.com

We hope to see you there!
